Hi

I just wondered what this actually means? 

It is in relation to the Mallett's:  The estate at Sutton, evidently part of Shapwick, was assessed at 5 hides.

thanks

Can someone explain to me what this means in plain English. 

Sir Philip Fettiplace was a knight, and Member of Parliament in 1302.  He held half a knight’s fee in Chalford (par. of Aston Rowant, Oxon.) and 6 virgates of land in 1290. Quitclaim by John de Cameys to Philip Fettiplace and his heirs of the manor of North Denchworth, for which quitclaim Philip gives one sore sparrowhawk (Feet of Fines, Berks, 19 Edw. I.) (a Sparrow Hawk under one year old)

Much appreciated
